"Kevin showed up right on time. Within thirty minutes he had inspected my electrical system, fixed the immediate problem, and given me an estimate for what things needed to be upgraded to meet current code standards and the cost of doing so. He was courteous and knowledgeable and I was comfortable with the improvements he suggested. I haven't gotten any other quotes on the upgrades yet, but I'm confident his quote is competitive."

"It was done in two visits. First was the troubleshooting of outlets. I agreed to the $127 troubleshooting fee which it only took about 5-10 minutes to fix problem. It was a bit high but I agreed to it before I seen how long it took (to be fair, they also didn’t know how long it would take). They then quoted me $485 to run a new 20 amp outlet from my panel to my sunroom, to be done at a later date. I had thought it would be done in the same visit but it didn’t bother me to reschedule. I felt the price was fair to run the extra line so no complaints there. As for punctuality, they were about 5-10 minutes late which again wasn’t a big deal for me. I knew I was the first appointment of the day and that they were coming from Toledo. I can only give an excellent if they were here by the time stated but there was no issues on my end with the time they arrived. The electricians (2) they sent out were very professional and had excellent workmanship. I would definitely use them again in the future."

"I had some complaints which I listed in my previous review. They refunded the $189 fee that I had disputed. But I must add this in their favor--last night DTE's power went out, and the whole-house battery kicked in flawlessly. Despite the bumps with the install and air conditioner repair person, when I needed the system to work, it worked flawlessly. Original Review: I am posting this review to warn people against contracting with Oak Electric of Waterford, MI. Monday 6/1 I turned on my central air for the first time and found that the condenser would not turn on, so I phoned Oak Electric. I called Oak Electric because in January I had hired them to install some solar panels on my roof. They botched the installation (this will likely be the subject of a second complaint next week; they still have not fixed the botched solar installation), and I suspected that they made a wiring mistake that broke my ac condenser. I was wrong in this specific suspicion, but correct to feel suspicious about Oak Electric's competence. Oak Electric sent a repair person. The repair person told me that the fault was a defective control panel. The repair person said that since the brand was Nordyne, it was not worth his time to find the part, but he wished me luck and charged me $189. After several hours of searching I found the part, and phoned a local air conditioning repair company to ask them to purchase the part and install it (I could not purchase the part myself because the seller, RH Townsend of Warren, MI, will only sell to licensed mechanical contractors). Thankfully, the other representative was competent. Instead of purchasing the part he instead came to my house to look at the condenser. First he tested the control panel and told me that it was working correctly. He then tested the unit for freon and found it was almost empty; the control panel was not allowing the device to turn on because the freon was low. In other words, the information I received from the Oak Electric technician was false. The control panel was not broken; to the contrary, it was working as designed. The representative stated flatly that any competent ac technician sent to diagnose a non-working condenser would check the freon level, and that failing to check the freon level and charging $189 for the visit was ridiculous. The Oak Electric technician was incompetent and in no way deserving of his $189 payment. I asked Oak Electric to refund my $189, and they have not replied. I would like Oak Electric to refund the $189 I paid for their useless, worthless, incompetent anti-service. I'm not holding my breath."

"Called and came out the same day. Very nice and professional contractor. There was a little more work than anticipated...he did a great job and got the A/C up and running in no time. He also finished a ceiling fan repair that my husband was to busy for. Reasonable cost....I will refer him to all my neighbors! Great find and I will use this service again. With appreciation."

"Jacob did a fantastic job! He was professional and was able to help us. We just bought the house and it needed a lot of electrical work. Jacob was patient with us as we were learning, told us what we would need and installed it in good time. Will hire again!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Ida, MI

Yes, a licensed electrician is essential for this project. Running an electrical service from the road to your house involves connecting to utility power lines, complying with national and local electrical codes, and safely handling high-voltage systems. 

Licensed professionals understand proper wire sizing, grounding requirements, and voltage drop calculations needed for safe installation. Most jurisdictions require permits and inspections that only certified professionals can obtain. The safety risks and potential for property damage make this project inappropriate for DIY attempts.

Overhead installations are less expensive than underground options. For a 1000-foot run, overhead service costs between $8,000 and $15,000, while underground service ranges from $10,000 to $25,000. 

Overhead lines require less labor and fewer materials since they don't need trenching or conduit. However, underground lines offer better protection from weather events and aesthetic benefits. Your decision should balance your budget constraints with long-term reliability and visual preferences.

You might need to upgrade your electrical panel depending on your power requirements. If your existing panel cannot handle the additional load from the extended service, upgrading to a 200-amp service (costing $750 to $2,000) may be necessary. 

A licensed electrician can evaluate your current system and determine if an upgrade is required. Factors include what you'll be powering at the end of the line, existing electrical demand, and whether voltage drop over the distance will affect performance.

Running electric service from the road to a house requires electrical permits from your local building department, costing between $500 and $2,000 depending on your location. You may also need excavation permits for trenching work if installing an underground service. Your utility company will have its own application process for connecting to its grid. A licensed electrical contractor can handle all the necessary permit applications as part of their service, ensuring your installation meets all local code requirements.
